If Britain had given India independence in 2010 then partition would not have been necessary because Pakistan already got hers in 1947.:D Partition is more than just the independence of India, its the independence of Pakistan as well. We're just as proud of our independence from Britain and...

This is a deeply flawed logic in India that the actions of half a dozen guys in Mumbai represent a manifestation of 'hate' from the entire nation of Pakistan. If the majority of Pakistan wanted war with India then the situation would be very different for both of us today. Indians need to...

Thats quite enough off topic BS from all of you. Both sides here have a lot of pride and arrogance. Any one of you guys makes an irrelevant little post again, then its banning time. Yeah sure these Indian commandos look really nice and all that. But now lets get down to realities. Are they as...

I don't think we can expect much to change because of Gen McChrystal's cautious words. What he said was blindingly obvious anyway. As an American scholar pointed out yesterday on Dawn's News Eye program, the US military has traditionally been more sympathetic to Pakistan's prospective because...

Increasing Indian influence in Afghanistan is likely to exacerbate regional tensions and encourage Pakistani countermeasures in Afghanistan or India, Gen McChrystal stated in his report. ‘Indian political and economic influence is increasing in Afghanistan, including significant development...

Nah, I reckon they were there for show along with the rest of the stuff in the air show. A force in its infancy but not to be underestimated perhaps?

The key here is not to stereotype. Both sides do it to be honest. But its NOT allowed. As far as cow urine goes... well why is it relevant anyway? Its not. If it makes our Hindu members uncomfortable, or gets them offended, then we should refrain from raising it. Same way we wouldn't like it if...

Thank you all for your valuable but slightly off topic contributions. Now I must urge you discuss the report. Otherwise your posts will be deleted or shifted to another thread. Thanks.

It would be nice if you guys could start discussing the report and express your views in context of such. There is much to be said about the Afghan War and about US military history in general but lets stick to the topic please. Next time if someone derails the topic, instead of replying I'd...

You turned a blind eye towards it because you hoped we’d just stop? Makes no sense. And all this, you expect me to believe, had nothing to do with the fact that Pakistan was helping fight a war you very much wanted? Convenient, isn't it. You accuse me of exhibiting 'confusion' without...

Don't you guys have any news articles or bulletins to verify this supposed development?

Indeed. Like I said, comes down to the same thing. You needed an excuse, found it in our nuclear program. Are you trying to tell me that you THOUGHT we weren't building nuclear weapons? Don't waste your time there. Was Israel an ally in accordance with your 'vision' as well? Its hypocrisy...

Logic dictates if that aspect was overlooked before, when we were allies, could've been after the war too. Sudden stroke of righteousness or the desire to drop an ally once its purpose was served? Our nuclear program was not a revelation that hit the US after the Afghan War, far from it...

Don't rant. Stick to the matter of the report for God's sake, all of you. You're assuming too much here. Logic would dictate that Pakistan and the US would most certainly have shared a more harmonious 'political trajectory' had the US decided to stay committed to the region and to Pakistan...

Stop bickering. I got the impression that the language used by Gen McChrystal was still fairly ambiguous. For example: 'senior leaders of the major Afghan insurgent groups are based in Pakistan, are linked with al Qaeda and other violent extremist groups, and are reportedly aided by some...

You must have your own reasons for thinking that. I certainly didn't get any such impression. There is a lesson here too: don't be difficult unnecessarily.

Actually, the IAF achieved no kind of superiority over West Pakistan in 1971 either. Indian observers have tried to justify IAF's success through aspects other than comparative performance with the PAF i.e. purpose and direction of command. In 1971 the IAF did better than the IAF of 1965, but...

Back to the topic please. Thanks!

The link you posted did not mention it I'm afraid.

I never claimed that my media is particularly respectable. But thats besides the point, you posted an article from the Indian Express that you claim is credible. I don't deny that there MAYBE credible media outfits in India still, but the article on its own merit appears to be nonsense. Because...
